Hi everyone,
A few months ago I was out at Galong, NSW, at the Redemptorist Monastery (now also a retreat/conference venue) to give a workshop, and took the opportunity (of course!!) to visit the local cemetery. I took photos of the following gravestones as they were quite early (for Australia, at least), so if anyone wants a copy of the pics, let me know.
Sacred to the Memory of Timothy O'BRIEN, who departed this life on the [...] day of [...] 1854 in the 37th year of his age, leaving a wife and five children to lament the loss of an affectionate husband and good father. Requiescant in Pace Amen.
